Have you ever seen the series Dragon Ball? If so, you'll probably find some similitudes between the main character of the series (Son Goku) and the main character of FFIX (Yitan). First, you may see that Yitan has a tail, like some kind of monkey, and Son Goku had it too when young. Till here there's no need to worry about, as we just talk about a tail. But when Yitan reaches state of trance, he becomes some kind of monkey, and pink hair grows all around his body. A really similar transformation suffers Goku in Dragon Ball GT series when he reaches the Fourth level of Super Sayan. Isn't it too coincidence??
I must say that Dragon Ball much more older than FFIX.
What do you think?

i saw that the first time i played, and kind of laughed but i dont think theyre trying to copy dragonball, at least i hope it isnt...though the similarities are very apparent. was square called square enix when they made ffIX? because toriyama works with enix...(dragon quest)... dragonball is very popular in japan(well, it is in every part of the world, but...^^ still, its very interesting.

I forgot it was called Zidane Good you remember it Shadowheart Of course they are not equal, I didn't say that, I just found these similarities curious, don't you? (I didn't know Toriyama works with Enix!! Perhaps it might explain it... ) Everytime I enter the forum I learn new things
